Dirk and David are joined by Jon Ingold, narrative designer and co-founder of Inkle Studios. They discuss Inkle's newly released video game A Highland Song, centered around exploration, discovery, and engaging the human form within nature. They discuss the mechanics around rewarding and incentivizing players in an exploration game, ways to hide the quantum ogre, and how to utilize elements of randomness within a story-driven experience.

Inevitabilmente, questa settimana ci concentriamo a chiacchierare, fra mille divagazioni e argomenti più o meno collaterali, del trailer di Grand Theft Auto VI (02:05). Abbiamo però anche spazio per la solita raffica di licenziamenti nell'angolo dei cattivi (01:03:22). Infine, un giuoco giuocato: torna Inkle Studios con A Highland Song (01:18:40). Buon ascolto!

In this episode your nice hosts chat with Anna C. Webster lead writer on The Foglands, and her cat Montezuma. Anna talks about how writing for games is different than writing for other medias, including making decisions on what options the player can make (you can never let your player do anything because scope), and writing for players that role-play as the character vs. wearing the character's costume as yourself. And the importance of frequent Narrative Reviews and getting together with other teams to talk about how new elements feel.Stephen's journey in this episode takes him from declaring that writing is hard to being encouraged and pledging to write for the his next games jam project (Ellen will be coding in Godot).

Elden Ring is set in world "built" partly by George R R Martin. But what is worldbuilding? We talk to games writer Jon Ingold of Inkle Studios to find out.

Jon Ingold is the founder and narrative director of Inkle Studios who have made hugely popular narrative games such as 80 Days, Overboard! and Heaven's Vault. He is also a published author and has just released a two-volume novel set in the Heaven's Vault world.We had a fascinating chat with Jon about the differences between fiction and interactive fiction - and found out that in many ways, they are not all that different after all. We talked about his inspirations for interactive fiction, and how he structures these stories both from a technical and narrative perspective. He tells us why he wanted to revisit the world of Heaven's Vault as a book, and we also find time to talk about the latest film adaptation of Dune...Links:Buy Heaven's Vault the novel now!Follow Jon on TwitterVisit Inkle's websiteThe Page One Podcast is brought to you by Write Gear, creators of Page One - the Writer's Notebook.

He is of course Jon Ingold, CEO and co-founder of Inkle Studios and developer of games such as this podcast's game of the year 2019, Heaven's Vault, Overboard! and Pendragon.

We sat down with Inkle Studios' Narrative Designer, Jon Ingold, to talk about their new surprise-release mystery game Overboard! On a trip from London to New York, you get sick of your husband and throw him overboard, and now you've got to get away with it. Set in the 1930s, this youdunnit takes the ideas we explored in The Last Express, flips them on their head and dials up the urgency. From hiding goals from the player, to an impassioned rant about a contentious mechanic in the game, Jon tells us all about what went into this wonderful new addition to the mystery pantheon.

We discuss episodes 1-6 of Rooster Teeth's 'Dead Little Roosters', directed by Josh Flanagan and Fiona Nova. Ten of Rooster Teeth's staff arrive for a party at the estate of the wealthy Nicodemus, only for the old man to turn up dead. The ten are then locked in their rooms, and as the gang keep themselves entertained, the body count starts to rise in rhythm with a mysterious poem, the 'Dead Little Roosters Addendum'. Who will survive, and who is the killer? With real prizes on the line, it's up to the audience to figure it out in this interactive mystery competition (or at least it was when it was airing).We're also joined by Jon Ingold, Narrative Designer for Inkle Studios to talk about their awesome new youdunnit mystery game, Overboard! From keeping players engaged with a rotating set of goals, and investing your players in a murderous protagonist, it's a beautiful culmination of many of the ideas we've been discussing over the course of our interactive leg of the tour.

This week we are right in the middle of E3 2021 and today I'm going to round up all the major announcements so far including Elden Ring, Battlefield 2042, plus recap the Summer Games Fest, Ubisoft Forward, Devolver Digital and also Day of the Devs too. I've also been playing a fantastic new game called Overboard from Inkle Studios, and I'll get into that later on.

Früher oder später musste es so kommen. Daniel und Florian müssen nicht nur im ersten Duo-Dudecast der Geschichte von Lost Levels die Fahne für alle Spiele zwischen Indie und AA hochhalten, sondern sich auch mit Dokumentenfälschung, heimlichen Liebschaften und strunzdoofen Lehnsherren und -frauen herumschlagen. Ganz genau: Crusader Kings 3 schickt sich an, State Of Decay 2 mittels gemeinster Intrigen vom Thron des besten Spiels zu stoßen. Die anderen vorgestellten Titel können da natürlich nicht ganz mithalten, geben aber ihr Bestes. Manchmal klappt das, wie bei der einfühlsamen, wohlig-warmen Parabel auf den Tod und was am Ende übrig bleibt in I Am Dead oder dem timing-basierten Kampfsystem von Ikenfell. Manchmal klappt das eher nicht, wie im relativ blutleeren Was-wäre-wenn-Gedankenspiel Pendragon, das uns die Arthur-Sage neu schreiben lässt. Unsere Leckerlevels sind natürlich wie immer absolute Hits - dank Vanille-Kokos-Joghurt und Allergikeräpfeln. Im Cast besprochene Spiele: Ikenfell ab 8:19, Crusader Kings 3 ab 19:12, Pendragon ab 38:34, I Am Dead ab 48:38

Show host and producer Chris O'Regan chats to Joe Humfrey of Inkle Studios about the development of Heaven's Vault. Storytelling normally revolves around the characters more than the world they find themselves in. But what if a story places prominence on both facets of fiction and the world starts to overshadow the characters? Inkle Studios seeks to overcome this problem by making the characters of Heaven's Vault - and the world in which they reside - utterly fascinating. It is this that this episode of The Sausage Factory addresses, as well as the creation of a unique language for the game's players to fathom out. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/TSF_Episode227.mp3   Sausage Factory 227 was produced and edited by Chris O'Regan

Jon Ingold, co-founder of Inkle Studios, joins us on the podcast today. The studio has produced award-winning adventures for mobile and PC, including the Sorcery series and 80 Days, and they're only weeks away from releasing their latest project, Heaven's Vault. Jon somehow found the time to talk to us about his career, the founding of Inkle and the creation of their games, as well as diving into the nuts and bolts of what it means to write interactive, branching fiction and dialogue. There's incredible insight here from one of the most experienced writers in gaming, and if you're interested in games writing this is a must-listen.

Andrew kept banging on about Choose Your Own Adventure novels so Sam thought he'd give him one to play. So now that Andrew has a game that is packed full of story will he finally be happy?

Inkle Studios is a team that crafts experiences which straddle the line between two mediums. These deep, narrative games use text as their vehicle, but still manage to take people on grand adventures through fantasy kingdoms and journeys across the world. Join us as we talk with Inkle's Art & Code Director Joseph Humfrey about the origins of the studio, the foundation of good interactive fiction, and the enduring value of careful craftsmanship. 

In this one we cover the following thingamajigs: Baldur talks about what it feels like to anticipate that the mainstream will coincide with your interests but then watching it go into a different direction. Three different directions, to be specific. Craig Mod’s article. (And the coda he posted on his website, which you should also read.) Fahrenheit Press’s audience engagement. Xcode playgrounds. Involving the reader. Breaking out of the insular. Any involvement of the reader is experimental. Singing the praises of Sam Missingham. The value of making deliberate mistakes. Mistakes, not failure. Singing the praises of Inkle Studios. The big risk that publishers are taking. May contain swearing.

You can always guarantee that One Life Left never misses the chance to have a celebration. Except we forgot that this was our 250th episode, possibly because we've probably done more than 250 episodes due to spin-offs and literally unpodcastable episodes. However, we did celebrate in a way by having Jon and Joe from Inkle Studios in as our Super-Special Guests! They told us all about what it's like not winning a Bafta (it's rather similar to not winning a GMA), how Inkle is much better than Steve Jackson and how you make an open world book. Their new game Sorcery! 3 sounds rather excellent and will undoubtedly miss out on a Bafta next year. We also found out how Fearne Cotton is making extra pocket money by selling Xboxes, did some news near the end of the show, Ann went drinking, Ste and Simon played the same game and the letters section has been sponsored! By the company that Simon is joining next week. And we had the core contributing trio of Doctor Avatar, GameUnder and Sega Badawi. Cheerio!

“I have entered into the service of a new gentleman. It would seem he is a gambling man.” 80 Days by Inkle Studios is a video game adaptation of Jules Verne's classic novel of world...

Jonathan Miley speaks with the good folk behind the upcoming steampunk iOS interactive fiction multiplayer racing game, 80 Days. I spoke with John Ingold and Joe Humphrey, the co-founders of Inkle Studios, as well as Meg Jayanth, the lead writer on the game. This is an archived episode of DarkCast Interviews that originally appeared on Darkstation.com

Show host Chris ORegan interviews John Ingold and Joseph Humfrey of Inkle Studios to chat about the first two parts of Steve Jacksons Sorcery for iOS and Android devices. Sorcery was an epic choose your own adventure game book that first appeared in 1985. Inkle Studios were drafted in to bring this book into the 21st Century by putting into tablet and smart phones. Rather than just reproduce the same book Inkle Studios decided to create an role playing game out of the original material. The first part was released in the Spring of 2013 and the second, much more extensive half, has just been released for iOS devices. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/sausage/TSF_Episode02.mp3   Edited by Chris O'Regan
